Well to be clear, there are no rules. With Vcc, a case could be made for putting that first but personally I would put tape first because I think it has more of an impact than Vcc would on the decisions I would make. Now I would put Vcc first on the 2 buss to simulate a true console flow and to help create a minor degree of transient control before the compressor if you use one. If we were to truly emulate an analog flow i think it would be vcc - tape - vcc but that would be alot of cpu for something as subtle as Vcc.

smash that.
If youre really running out of cpu just start printing the console->tape->console stack onto the tracks

Ive debated the merits of this, but I dont know if I believe there is a tangible gain to made by using two instances of vcc on the same track. I also value the hours it would take me to do this to all tracks contained in a 10 song project.

The more I hear of this plugin, the more I love it. Not having much time for mixing lately but dammmmmn. Im feeling an ilok 2 purchase....
Would anyone be kind enough if they have a second in the day to run one of my old mixes through it to whet my appetite even more?
(only a cover, and a snippet is cool. )

yeah, thats what i thought.
i really like what it does to my mixes. but in the end i love my original mix better than the tape version... when a / bing i always liked the digital high end better... also i didnt like the compression, too much for my taste...
i think i will have to mix into this thing to really get the best out of it. will try.

Demo'd it today. It's great IMO. Definitely needs to be mixed into though, as it alters the frequency response in a big way. I found the subs hard to tame with it and Brit N running in concert. The highs it subtracts are nothing compared to the Nebula programs I'm used to using, so that's all manageable.

Caved in and got it for $169 couldn't resist, doesn't disappoint, sounds killer! You can really control the shaping and how it affects the fidelity with the various settings and how hard you hit the input. Really nice sounding and useful tool.

i demoed it for 2 days now and i´m quite impressed with VTM. and still i´m a/bing some of my mixes and i´m not sure if i like the ones with or without VTM better.lol
with VTM it sounds more musical and organic, everything falls better into the place, but without VTM its more in your face and pristine sounding.
Both versions do sound good and that makes it difficult to decide,
I guess at the end its up what serves the song most, and for some songs its better without vtm, and some songs sounds better with vtm at least for me
